Buddy Cianci is coming!!

He calls himself the only person who has ever been inside the White House, Windsor Castle and the federal penitentiary at Fort Dix in New Jersey. The former mayor of Providence, purveyor of marinara sauce, ongoing Prince of Providence and current radio talk show host will join us to discuss his most recent book on Tuesday, December 6 at 7:00 PM at the Dighton Middle School. The Library is honored to host Buddy Cianci for an evening of tales from Buddy’s perspective. Politics and Pasta: How I Prosecuted Mobsters, Rebuilt a Dying City, Dined with Sinatra, Spent Five Years in a Federally Funded Gated Community, and Lived to Tell the Tale is the story we will hear. Copies of the book should be available for purchasing and for Buddy to sign, courtesy of Readmore Bookstore.

“Cianci tells the fascinating story of his rise to power and the profound transformation that Providence underwent under his command…. As colorful on the page as he is in person, Cianci is a natural storyteller with a lot to say.”–Kirkus Reviews
